1841405 - PWA install not working

Status: RESOLVED WORKSFORME

(Firefox for Android :: PWA, defect)

Description

[André]

Steps to reproduce:

I opened a site which supports PWA e.g. twitch.tv, bmw.com, flipboard.com.
Press install from the menu.

Actual results:

Nothing happened. There's no error warning, nothing.

Expected results:

It should open a popup window prompting if I want to install the app. I know that this feature was working months ago.

I have exactly same issue in beta channel (117.0b8).
"Add to desktop" button works.
"Install" for PWA - does not. No reaction at all.

Hi, thanks for reporting the issue!

I think this might be resolved and would like to confirm. (Tested BMW and Twitter PWA install on a Pixel 4a in release 120 and succeeded installing.)

Is this still occurring for you in 120?

Redirect a needinfo that is pending on an inactive user to the triage owner.
:jonalmeida, since the bug has recent activity, could you have a look please?

Closing as WORKSFORME because the reporter hasn't responded and in my testing, I was not able to reproduce the bug on all the sites mentioned with my Pixel 6a using Nightly 122.
